The clock is ticking away until my gall bladder gets removed. It’s a weird feeling, really, but I’m not afraid or anything. As I write this (a little after noon on Sunday), it’s just odd knowing that 24 hours from now the surgery will be over and I’ll be starting to come out of the deep sleep. Weird.
I hope to be back online and active by Monday night (the same night of my surgery), but I think that might not quite happen…I should definitely be around again by Wednesday or Thursday of this week.
After my surgery I get to eat real foods again. VERY exciting…
I might be forced to hold off on going nuts at the buffet, though – today I actually reached and exceeded my final weight loss goal. My weight loss goals may have been posted on this blog last year (not sure), but my final goal was to “make” my high school wrestling weight limit of 275 – I wrestled heavyweight. Well, this morning I weighed in at the gym at 273 pounds, so I’ve completed my weight loss goals.
But knowing me I’ll probably write up a new set of weight loss goals to reach. Why take it easy, right? 🙂
In any event, I’m headed to the hospital early tomorrow morning and the surgery should be done by 12 noon. I’ll be back soon!

Thanks guys, I appreciate the well wishes. The surgery went well and I’m just dealing with a little of the minor pains here and there.
